Accenture Dynamic Transport Solution

Drive effective decision making with transportation network planning

OVERVIEW

As a result of rapid population growth and increasing urbanization, many Asian cities are experiencing a growing demand for public transport. However, most locations lack the infrastructure and systems to deliver timely and reliable services, thus impacting commuter satisfaction.

To help cities deliver more effective public transport that can enhance outcomes for commuters, operators and authorities, we have developed an intelligent platform: the Accenture Dynamic Transport Solution.

We have used our extensive experience in transforming global transport networks, analytics and other industries to develop this solution. The solution is an intelligent “brain” that matches commuters’ needs with transport supply.

The Accenture Dynamic Transport Solution creates a detailed knowledge base that draws on extensive network information by monitoring data sources, such as vehicle and road sensors, passenger volumes, spare capacity, journey time and delays, and the average speeds of buses, trains and taxis.

The solution then uses patented decision algorithms, combined with sophisticated analytics and data warehousing, to harness the knowledge base and deliver actionable insights. It helps predict what could happen across the network, and gives optimal recommendations to commuters, operators and authorities ahead of anticipated events.

WHY ACCENTURE

Accenture Dynamic Transport Solution puts the focus on the commuter. It does not simply push timetable information to commuters, but helps them choose how they get to their destinations based on their preferences and needs.

Additionally, the solution helps:

Transport operators accurately assess the demand for their services at specific spots and compare this with demand for transport across a city’s network. This allows operators to shift resources to take advantage of short- and long-term trends based on sound analytics.

Authorities improve commuter satisfaction with public transport. They can gain a big picture of the city’s transport network—how the network functions as a whole, identify where routes need to be adjusted, and create more efficient and reliable transport options.

Service providers (including retailers and public sector authorities) get better opportunities to provide targeted offers and communications to commuters.

Accenture teams up with our clients to customize the solution so as to enhance city public transport network systems.
